What do I mean? When I say misbehaves I mean your painting starts to look dull and not as fresh and vibrant. Or even worse the painting starts to fade, yellow or both. And the absolute worse case scenario is if the paint starts chipping or cracking -Noooooooo !!! Yep these are signs that your painting the one you purchased was probably created with bad quality paint or even house paint - Eeeeeeeeeeek. I've read that famous Artists within the past 60 years used house paint, if true or not I can only speak for myself and I personally choose to purchase and paint with Acrylic Paint specifically created for painting on canvas and on paper which has been created with today's technology. I use Golden Paints manufactured in the state of New York and they stand behind their product and you can learn more about them and their paint products and mediums on their website. By the way this isn't a sponsored post by Golden Paints I'm just sharing my favorite product line. Thanks for visiting.

Why do I like to paint with acrylics? Very simple, it dries quickly. Acrylics dry quickly which keeps me on my toes, I'm not a methodical thinker I like to make any corrections to the paint on the canvas immediately. I've disliked oil paint since I was a kid when I painted with oils for the first time. The next morning I checked to see if my painting was dry... it wasn't, it was still wet and I ruined my own painting. I prefer to have my paintings completely dry in a few days not two months. Acrylic paint will feel dry to the touch on canvas as soon as 8 hours after painting it depending on the size of the canvas but it may need another week to dry completely before varnishing.
